My 10 week old puppy keeps making a weird noise is his throat - is it hiccups?

this is my very first puppy, so i'm paranoid that every noise she makes means something bad:( I've read that hiccups are normal for puppies, but i just wanna make sure these are hiccups. They're very quick-paced last about a minute (they occur about twice or so per day).

    No problem...just puppy gas..They still swallow a lot of air when eating and sometimes will eat too fast, Hiccups are normal. No sweat.

    My puppy had hiccups like this. However, it may not be hiccups. Just to be safe, go to and ask your vet!

    Hope I helped

    Good Luck

    hmmm.... could be the hiccups, although my puppy never had it when she was 10 weeks old. I think it could be the hiccups, but maybe check with the vet just to be sure

    Take her to the vet. By now she should have had a health check up.. never mind what the breeder said.

    Your vet will tell you what is wrong. Also your puppy is due worming and shots.
